What to book: Bob Bob Ricard’s Sunday roast

The restaurant launches its weekend treat just in time for autumn’s blustery weather

Known for it's Russian-inspired modern British menu and gleaming art deco surrounds, you may not instantly think of Bob Bob Ricard for a helping of comfort food, but this is all about to change with the launch of its Sunday roast. Just in time for October’s blustery weekends, you can now book in at this Soho stalwart for a classic autumnal feast.

Round up a group of friends or bring the family together in one of the chic but comfortable booths, surrounded by swathes of beautiful wallpaper. You’ll notice a ‘press for champagne’ button on the side of your table: push this to enjoy an instant glass of chilled fizz, which you can accompany with a light starter of fresh oysters or a delectable crab salad.

But don't go overboard on appetisers and eschew the breadbasket – the generous 16 ounces per person of USDA Prime Black Angus served up on a wooden sharing board is sure to defeat even the most voracious carnivore (but it is so tasty that you’ll endeavour to finish the whole portion). The roast rump cap of corn-fed Arkansas beef is cooked medium, and is rich in flavour and super succulent. And while this is the star of the show, a supporting cast of slow-roasted potatoes – flattened and salted – a crispy Yorkshire pudding and carrots and parsnips roasted in beef dripping with honey and thyme are all equally delicious. Each diner gets a pot of whipped horseradish cream and a jug of truffle gravy to add that final swirl of brilliance to the plate.

The Bob Bob Ricard Sunday roast is now available for £29.50 a person. For more information and to book, visit bobbobricard.com or ring 020 3145 1000.
